    Well, it is fake news in the sense that the Repugs have been claiming that the entire investigation is based on the dossier. This proves that claim is fake news.

    So Hillary drugged Papadopeapiss and brainwashed him with false information about the Trump campaign and Russia so he would leak it to Australia in order to hide the fact that she was planning on killing Seth Rich.

    Finally it all makes sense.

    The article is about the incident which sparked the FBI investigation of candidate Trump, who has accused Obama of initiating it. The purpose of the article is to finally get the incident straight, yet Haak's thread title confuses the reader on purpose.

    It doesn't show as green on my screen. A moderator should change the thread title. The title doesn't accurately represent your excerpt. And your poorly-chosen vague excerpt doesn't summarize your article well. A better excerpt:

    "Top diplomat" means Ambassador. "Counterparts" means intelligence operators or FBI.

    To know that the tread title isn't accurate means that you actually read the article, which is what Haak wanted.

    I read it, when will it change from a hyper ambitious nobody trying to suckup to Trump into Trump colluded with Putin?

    Will it be real news then?

    Yep. But then the bottom line is, "dirt on Clinton". Not manufactured but shit she did or said.

    If the world were right, our journalist would be digging this crap out, not wailing about someone else doing it.

    The House Intelligence Committee has already determined that the FBI paid to have the fake dossier created, obviously sometime before it was being offered to GP. GP was most likely an FBI operative from the very beginning, with his arrest and upcoming "testimony" a part of the frame. Likewise, the Australian diplomat is no more credible than disgraced British spy Christopher Steele, the author of the fictional dossier.
